September Presidency Message "Establish a House of Order"

I have been contemplating what truly is a "House of Order"? I think for most of us we think of a clean, non-contentious home. These things are good, but they are just the basics for a "House of Order".

To set our houses in an order "pleasing to the Lord," we need to do it His way. We are to employ His attributes of righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience and meekness. When we are focused on the gospel principles and use them regularly in our lives and homes, great blessings can be ours. President Monson reiterated the scripture in a general conference, "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven." Such is true in our lives. Let us provide time for family, time for work, time for study, time for service, time for recreation, time for self--but above all, time for Christ.

If we set our houses in order now and faithfully cling to the gospel, we will feel our home to be a "House of Order". We are so thankful for the examples each of you are to us and to one another!

We love you dearly!

Jennifer, Tiffiny, Yvonne and Breann
